Ženski spol v gimnazijskih učbenikih pri predmetih zgodovina in sociologija : magistrsko delo

Tuhčić, Meliha (author), Trškan, Danijela (mentor), Židan, Alojzija (mentor)

Pričujoče magistrsko delo obravnava ženski spol v gimnazijskih učbenikih pri predmetih zgodovina in sociologija. Namen je bil ugotoviti, koliko je ženski spol zastopan v učbenikih in na kakšen način so opredeljene vloge žensk. Glede na izbrano strokovno literaturo so na kratko predstavljene vloge in položaj žensk skozi zgodovinska obdobja, od prazgodovine do sodobnosti. Analiza devetih gimnazijskih učbenikov obeh predmetov je pokazala, da je ženski spol v učbenikih šibko zastopan. Predlagali smo dve učni uri za predmeta zgodovina in sociologija, ki kažeta, kako bi se lahko vključil ženski spol v obstoječe učne teme, torej z nadgradnjo učne snovi, ki je že prisotna v učbenikih. Anketni odgovori oz. mnenja gimnazijskih profesorjev in profesoric zgodovine in sociologije o zastopanosti ženskega spola v učbenikih so pokazali, da večina profesorjev in profesoric meni, da ženski spol ni premalo zastopan v učbenikih obeh predmetov ter da pri svojih učnih urah že obravnavajo teme, ki se nanašajo na ženski spol in zgodovino žensk. Magistrsko delo želi poudariti pomen zastopanosti ženskega spola v gimnazijskih učbenikih. Predlagamo, da bi učne teme, v katerih so ženske močneje prisotne, morale biti del obveznih širših tem, in ne izbirnih, kakor je sedanja praksa v učnih načrtih in učbenikih za zgodovino in sociologijo.

Abstract

This master's thesis discusses women in general secondary school textbooks for the subjects of history and sociology. The purpose of the thesis is to explore to what extent women are represented in these textbooks and how their roles are defined. In accordance with the selected scientific literature, we briefly describe the role and situation of women throughout history, from prehistoric times to contemporary era. The analysis of the nine textbooks has shown that women are underrepresented in the textbooks. We have also added two lesson suggestions to show how women could be included in the existing learning units, mostly by extending the units that are already in the textbooks. The survey answers or the opinions of history and sociology general secondary school teachers regarding representation of women in the textbooks show that the majority of the teachers think that women are not underrepresented in the textbooks for either subject. They believe however that more could be done and are in fact already including additional topics about women into their lectures. This master's thesis aims to emphasize the importance of representation of women in general secondary schools’ textbooks. We suggest that teaching topics in which women are more strongly present should be part of mandatory topics rather than electives, as it is the current practice in history and sociology syllabi and textbooks.
